Stealthy, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB/META and @Brianrrs37 on Twitter)

Recalcitrant
Lying in shadows
Scent of prey
Night’s display
Panther’s claws
Tiger’s jaw
Cobra’s bite
Venom’s knife
Scorpion’s life
I found my love
Whom I thought of
White olive dove
Branching out
Peace to me
Easily stealthy
Crouching ready
My knees queasy
Desire uneasy
I was not sturdy
Both in a hurry
Crash on the sand
Ocean’s command
Island we land
Lust at hand.
